As a student when I played in a small band (60s and 70s rock and pop for dancing) in a restaurant we would make a lot money over carnival, playing four nights in a row from 20:00 p. m. to 3:00 a. m. with only 20 minutes break around midnight for something to eat. It was tough, and my left-hand fingers had no callus left the last night so the strings hurt, but it was a lot of fun. We had the drinks and a full meal free. But of course you had to be careful not drinking much, people expected you to be good till the end. The money I got equalled one month of student's grants.
What a pity we can't give two emojis, you always have to choose which is the more important one. So here's my no. 2
I really like the surreal appearance of the bokeh in this image. It has a pleasing yet well defined geometric look.
That's what the Voigtländer 50mm f/1.5 can do ... I think it's a really wonderful lens; I prefer it over its big brother, the 50mm f/1.2, simply because of its rendering, and even though, objectively, the Summicron-M 50mm f/2 is the better lens, I think I could live quite happily with the 50mm f/1.5 VM alone ... which, at some point, I might even try ...
No, it's attached by a couple pieces of double-sided tape. It's pretty secure, and takes a bit of force with a putty knife to remove it.
